Ok let's get some boards

I really want to win this game.

It just feels like we should be able to pull away. A spurt here and we'll be sitting pretty

Look good so far. I think we match up well

Come on, Ish. gut up.

cats bro
-
we are so in our heads right now. our nyc guys are way too excited
-
Board tip. The game thread goes much better if you just put Rain Boy Stunz on ignore. Highly recommend.
-
but how can you even get in your head when nobody shows up to our game? there's 20 million people in new york
-
damn izzo is old af
-
this is like the 3rd game i've watched. how are we so athletic and have a million dunks and can't grab a rebound
-
nowell kind of looking thin up top
-
ish should donate some of his hair. not only does he have the best shot he has the most hair
-
Ish!
-
ISH rough ridin' MASSOUD
-
ISH MAN, ISH
-
Let's get ish 20
-
Looking spicy!
-
I'd love to see Ish get twenty.
-
ish leaving and baiting his guy on defense so whoever could stuff the crap out of him. what a team player. ish.
-
SWISH
-
So beautiful
-
we would be undefeated if tang played ish like he should. it's ridiculous
-
Ugh, can't pull away!!
-
We should be up 10 on these losers
-
Surprised we didn’t go 2-for-1 there. Nice shot by Cam tho. Good game for him thus far
-
i feel like mathematically with 40 seconds it's better to just run up the court and chuck a 3. if you can do it 2 times, shooting 20%, that's .2*3*2=1.2 points. and that's like worse case scenario
-
Surprised we didn’t go 2-for-1 there.
I KNOW. tang needs to learn some analytics
-
enjoyed our ability to make shots. a little concerned about the defense and rebounding displayed in the first half. hopefully the former persists better into the second half.
-
damn izzo is old af
Has Grampa Simpson vibes
-
i hope we score more points than them the second half. cats, man.
-
I'm afraid we will revert to TO's on offense and not quite so hot shooting but that's probably just me being a nervous nelly rofl lol
-
Michigan state has proved they are nothing but a good free throw shooting team that first half
-
Just a great half. Sparty is going to have to step out on the three’s. When they do, quis will carve them up.

CATS

i know someone else who likes boats
-
Nowell has won the crowd over to Tang's Cats. They'll be with us the rest of the game. We're th toast of Broadway.
-
Which makes you feel better at half time?
shooting 0-12 from three and up by 6 over Kentucky
or
shooting 7-12 from three and up by 5 over Michigan State
feels like we should be up more in this game :ohno:
-
Izzo probably gonna quit doubling Quis on the drive. But Nowell 1 on 1 ain't that bad for us, either.

We can legit beat any team left.

The gE consensus (elite bball think tank) is that this team has probably the greatest downside in the Tourney if we go on a TO fest but also unlimited upside. We could beat anyone or lose the next game by 15, that’s the charm.

If Marqkuise is healthy, we can beat anyone

Nothing comes off the top of my head, plenty of great plays from 2003 CCG and other stuff, but in terms of situation and stakes it's incredibly high up there.
For me, the "more of those" plays needs to happen in terms of their bold and daring, it reminded me (seeing the replay) a ton of the ku game alley-oop. This is much higher stakes, but situationally very similar in terms of the "holy crap that just happened" feel

I was in high school when Rolando hit the baseline jumper to beat Oregon State. That had been the top NCAA moment for me and Cats basketball.
I am thinking it got displaced last night by the alley oop in OT.

Did we have any improvement in offensive rebounding in the 2nd half? The Cats sucked balls in that category in the first half. Very pleased with limiting TO's. It was disturbing to watch Michigan State get 4 shots on their 1st offensive possession.

Tom I appreciate the elder statesman of the board thing you have going on here. Lots of youngs and Too Cool For Ahearn'rs on this board but I have always been into how you drop a dose of history and come at it with that valuable perspective. To hear you say this tops the Rolando shot makes me believe it.
That game was absolutely incredible. So happy for everybody, but especially the NYC boys. Michigan State's last possession in OT nearly killed me but goddamn, what a time for our defense to step up. Not only did we steal and seal it with a full-court 'quis reverse layup at the end, but man, everything that came before that was so incredible too. We got on every dude who touched the ball on that last possession and frustrated the crap out of them. Just absolutely rose to the occasion.
-
One thing not being talked about enough:
KU was like booo hoooo we don't get to play in KC. Our guys and coaches wanted NYC. Listen, I'm a KC guy to the core but obviously you'd rather be at MSG! Advantage = Cats

The BLOB when ish gets the jumper. Izzo used TWO timeouts, and we still scored. I thought that was huge because that left Sparty with 1 TO which they then took to set up their last possession. When that possession went south they had no more TO to regroup.

The way that Tang crushed Izzo on that final BLOB play needs to be discussed further. Izzo calls a TO. Players go line up and then Tang calls his own TO and SCORES YET AGAIN ON A OUT-OF-BOUNDS PLAY in a critical situation. He just mentally crushed Izzo in his Crazy Faith mind meld.
Also, Keyontae's BLOB pass to himself for an easy bucket was absolutely filthy and cold blooded. I assume that wasn't drawn up, Key just saw it and took what was his. I cannot believe how good we are at this.
Edit: sorry I just missed Tom's elite post about this. And I would like to echo what SB said about the awesome perspective that Tom brings to gE. Keep posting.

It’s my absolute favorite thing about this team and seems to be our secret weapon. Most other teams are unprepared for how loose we play when it’s the game on the line.

It was Mahomes-esqe. MSU went on that run and I was starting to panic. #1 comes back on the floor and starts making plays that are more jaw-dropping than what we saw before the injury.

Also, Keyontae's BLOB pass to himself for an easy bucket was absolutely filthy and cold blooded. I assume that wasn't drawn up, Key just saw it and took what was his. I cannot believe how good we are at this.
Edit: sorry I just missed Tom's elite post about this. And I would like to echo what SB said about the awesome perspective that Tom brings to gE. Keep posting.
I always just assumed it was one of those things where if the guy guarding the in-bounds passer turns his back to you then you just automatically put that in your mind that you can throw it off his kaboose if you need that as an option.

The BLOB when ish gets the jumper. Izzo used TWO timeouts, and we still scored. I thought that was huge because that left Sparty with 1 TO which they then took to set up their last possession. When that possession went south they had no more TO to regroup.

Great point.
If I’m MSU, I’m still pissed their lights out big white guy passed up the 3. Couldn’t believe it when it happened.
I am still in disbelief. He was so Wisconsiny
White people all look alike, but I think it was that guy who bricked the front end of 1-and-1 when they were down 2 at 72-70-ish, KSU rebounded and promptly got a 3. I thought they were done then, and maybe they were.

I’ve been living in this thread alone, and if you’re like me you are too. But part of the sweetness of this victory is that CanCo came out of hiding (https://goEMAW.com/forum/index.php?topic=43904.0).

I saw Ghost of Stan Parish on one of these threads earlier too!

They looked afraid to shoot on the last possession
Thought the same thing. It seemed setup for Walker to shoot, and nobody was going to against the design. Then they all ended up on the same side of the floor.

Rustin Dodd wrote about "The Lob" in the athletic and mentioned him talking to the crowd "watch this" about as he was crossing half court. Haven't rewatched yet though.

The FAU players watching the end of our game went wild on the lob

Yes, that's what Nowell said after the game at least regarding Thomas. Dodd Tweeted it during the game.

Quis said in postgame he saying that directly to Zeke. Also mentioned Mateen Cleaves sitting
over there, but didn’t know who he was at the time.

What's interesting about that BLOB is that it was well defended, there's no way they primary look was a baseline 13 footer. But those plays are designed so well and the players are playing with such conference that a secondary option resulted in that basket.

Massoud's guy took a wrong step to double or switch on KJ which gave Massoud the space to get free and get that shot off. Really great design. Maybe the dude made a mistake, or maybe it was a miscommunication.
